Me-Made-May '12

"I, Marie of A Sewing Odyssey, sign up as a participant of Me-Made-May '12. I endeavour to wear a self-made accessory or item of clothing for at least three days a week for the duration of May 2012."

So I met up with some awesome sewing bloggers in Walthamstow today (more on that tomorrow) and after some bullying encouragement from Zoe, I decided to join Me-Made-May '12 – the only official month of its kind taking place this year! I'm breaking myself in gently as I don't think I have enough self-made clothes that I actually wear to see me through an entire month...but here's hoping I exceed my expectations. I'm very excited to take part as I've always loved seeing people's outfit posts and daydreaming of one day joining in!

I was totally NOT bullying! You'll give me a bad rep chica! So glad you're on board. May I remind you that you just managed a flawless self-stitched week for the OWOP! project?! You'll be fine and hopefully have heaps of fun

I'm a first timer too! I found your blog through Tilly's OWOP roundup, and I love your Renfrew's. Very inspiring as I don't have a lot of practical me-mades, which is going to make the challenge, err, challenging! I was tempted to do 4 days a week but my husband pressured me into the full week, hahaha.
